Very Good article. A gun is a good thing to have FOR DEFENSE when lives are at stake. I have no grudge against the AR15. However, I have an effective range of 300 yards with an AR15. And an AR15 is kind of bulky for everyday use. In urban situations, the range is a lot less than 300 yards, even when in combat against an assassin with another AR15. Often a so-called “handgun” (i.e., revolver or pistol) can be used to do the job, even against an assassin with an AR15.
If you have a gun, good. I also advocate carrying restraints like handcuffs or something similar, so that the gun can be used to make an arrest instead of to shoot the bad guy. And that reduces the risk of shooting an innocent person who also has a gun, because of mistaken identification (IT HAPPENS!). And even if you shoot a really guilty bad guy, then there is still a big risk of a legal hassle.
And when the cops finally do show up, then make the best case as you can against the suspect.
This is also a First Amendment issue. “MSM” means Ministry of Propaganda to me, not Main Stream Media.
